Join Other High School Teens
for a Night of Jungle Exploration!
(March 19-20 -- TEEN CRHP Retreat)
Have you ever thought that...
...surviving high school is like asking teens to go live in the jungle?
...no matter how great your friends are the social scene is as dangerous as jungle?
...surviving alone in the jungle would be easier than teen dating?
...your faith and God don’t fit into this jungle called the high school years?
St. Barnabas & St. Bernadette Youth Groups are hosting their first Teen CRHP retreat which is an overnight retreat gathering totally planned by teens and totally led, run, and directed by teens.
Return the permission slip (click) to sign up. Space is limited to 25 participants. SIGN UP TODAY! |

8th grade and High school Teens
We are forming a Co-Ed Volleyball Team for the St. Barnabas Youth Ministry. It is not an intense league, it is not a huge time commitment, it is perfect for just a night out to have fun.
We will play on Monday nights at St. Christina Parish. We will compete against other local Youth Ministry groups who are just like you, our parish youth ministry. We do not have a schedule yet with our specific game times, I can assure you that we will play ONLY MONDAY NIGHTS and league hours are 6:30-10pm. This means our games will be scheduled 6:30 or later but will end no later than 10pm.
- No, you don’t have to be a sports fanatic to play.
- No, we will not schedule practices unless you, the team request it.
- No, this is not super competitive. IT’S FUN!
- No experience is necessary

Jr.High Open Gyms Return!
St. Barnabas Youth Ministry Jr. High Open Gym Nights are back on the schedule for 2009/ 2010. However, we need parent chaperones to make them possible and we need the teens' full cooperation.

We cannot offer the Open Gym Nights unless we have a minimum of 3 couples, or six parents to help. Will your parent help? Volunteers must have completed the Virtus Program and Background check. If you are an approved volunteer than please click the link below to download an open gym sign up form and submit it to the rectory.
